i forgot to grab a book before i left the house this morning. so i had to go eat lunch without anything to read.

how do people who don't read stand it? i mean, really? i was sitting there, eating my sandwich, idly scanning all the tables in the lunchroom to see if there was a section of the paper anywhere around, or if anyone had left a magazine, and i ended up reading the subtitles on the training video that they are playing repeatedly in the lunchroom for the new revolving doors. "scan your card. wait for the beep and the green light. walk through. always use your card." over and over and over again. i didn't spend long at lunch. i knew that there was text waiting for me here, at my desk, even though it is just work stuff.
